WHAT IT TAKES TO VOLUNTEER

When you sign-up to be a volunteer firefighter, you’ll receive all the training you need. Volunteer firefighters are not assigned a shift, but are expected to respond from home to emergency calls. You’ll be provided with regularly scheduled training in order to maintain the high level of knowledge, skill, and ability necessary to function safely and effectively as part of our firefighting team. You can rest assured you’re making a huge difference in your community and doing so in the safest way possible thanks to the exceptional training provided to you.

You might think at first that you don’t have the time – until you feel the honor of helping out your neighbors in a way that no one else can, when they truly need you. You’ll realize nothing is more worth your time. Meetings, drills, and work nights are held every Monday (excluding holidays) and begin promptly at 7PM.

BENEFITS

As a volunteer firefighter, not only do you get the satisfaction of helping others, but you become part of a new family, a brotherhood and sisterhood unlike any you’ve ever known. You’ll develop life experience that will prepare you for any situation, receive training in life-saving equipment and technology, and gain friendships that last a lifetime. Do it for the pride, the honor of it all, and most of all, do it for your community who needs you. You will find it will be one of the best decisions of your life.

Seven out of ten firefighters and emergency responders are volunteer. Nationwide, it’s estimated that volunteer firefighters save the American taxpayer $37.2 billion a year in labor costs.

Take the first step. We invite you to contact us or stop by the firehouse after 7PM on any Monday night to learn more.
